[Leaplist] Backup to external USB md RAID 1/5?

[Homer Whittaker]

Hi Mark:  I am confused as to where you are coming from with your 
comments.  First I do not know anything about the NSLU2 system, have 
never seen one, nothin.

So I went to the Debian-boot mailing list, March 2008.
Seems to be a high traffic count in 2008; 9 years after initial opening 
of the pointer.

Pulled up an Amazon NSLU2 page.  I saw a big bunch of different parts 
that apparently go together, where?  Does the unit have it's own case or 
what?

Would appreciate a pointer to some page that might provide me with a 
full explanation of the system.
